//Education

• 2007: Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Architecture

//Early days

A project of web platform for the architects was something that David Basulto and David Assael discussed when they were studying in their career. They noticed that there was a good time for architecture in Chile, but the rest of the world didn’t. The business started publishing works of architects that they knew personally, expanding to Argentina in 2008.

In that same year, they were the fourth page of architecture at the level of visits, but they wanted to reach the first place. David Basulto started working with his partner to publish content in English. They named the site that would remain until today: Archdaily.

A year later they became the most read site in the world.

//Career

The architects’ need to know how similar prior works have been done is the core-business of Archdaily’. They help managers to publish their works online. David Basulto also manages a team responsible for processing and translating the site’s information.

The company has expanded quickly. As mentioned, in 2008 they published their version in English. Three years later, they published a Portuguese version for the Brazilian market. In 2012 they opened operations for Mexico. They have also expanded to the Chinese market.

David Basulto’s company has not required external help to expand. They haven’t needed external capital to become the giants that they are today, their success has been thanks to a sensible economic plan that has always guaranteed them a profit, which they invest back to the same company.
